I know it's hard to get a doctor's appointments these days but how common is it for them to cancel appointments? Thanks.

I work in a surgery...and its not very common. If they are sick then its unavoidable although we would call you to arrange another appointment. In fact our GP's and Nurses are rarely sick and that's quite amazing bearing in mind they are often confronted with infections and colds etc.
